And both losses against brady with lopsided officiating. Like blatant, not even close to unbiased officiating. Both games completely decided by the refs. [Reply]

In any case, you hope the players can use some of the media hot takes as motivation to play their best.
You know gun to their head they aren't ever picking against Mahomes. But there's zero accountability for picking Cincy, and if you're right you can claim you saw the upset coming. Really stupid industry. And of course everyone sharing these clips far and wide is exactly what they want. [Reply]

In the past usually a team like the Chiefs were just playing at most 3 post season games so that is why the record is so relatively low. The extra team in the post season is inevitable over time going to lead to most post season records being broken.
With number 2 seeds having to play in wildcard round and now 7 teams in playoffs, it is inevitable that Niners record is going down either this year or very soon given recent trends in NFL.
So it's legit if we put up 48 on the Bengals... Right? [Reply]

Tom Brady has lost 11 with 34 wins think about that Patrick has 8 wins already in 4 years as a starter and took Brady over 20 years to get 34 Patrick is 26 so if all goes well Patrick can surpass 34 playoff victories within next 10 years. [Reply]

At least the Chiefs did not lose to the Bears, Jets and the Browns twice.

I have a very good feeling about this game — Bengals have weapons but we have a nuclear arsenal waiting to unleash.
Show no mercy.
Burrow is good but I'm just not scared of this team at home with our pass rush vs that OL, and their shitty defense.
One thing that is going to kill them is they don't have speed rushers. Hendrickson is a great matchup for OBJ. Their DTs aren't great pass rushers either.
